Man in Hamilton jail charged with murder in 2010 shooting in Nova Scotia

Police in Halifax say a tip from the public has led to charges against a man accused in a fatal shooting in 2010.

Investigators say 25-year-old Kale Leonard Gabriel has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of Ryan Matthew White.

Police say officers responded to a report of a shooting on Jarvis Lane in Halifax on July 22, 2010.

White was taken to hospital, where he later died.

The homicide was added to the province's Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes Program in 2012.

Gabriel is currently serving time at the Hamilton Wentworth Detention Centre on an unrelated matter.

He'll be transported to Nova Scotia at a later date to appear in Halifax Provincial Court on the murder charge.

Police arrested two men in 2012 in connection with the murder, but released them without charges. Halifax police Supt. Jim Perrin confirmed that Gabriel was one of those arrested in 2012.

White, 21, was found dead on the pavement outside a building in the Mulgrave Park housing complex in Halifax.
